ESPN is letting college football fans get a jump-start on their vacation requests with the release of its plans to televise 35 bowl games over 17 days.

The 22nd edition of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl will kick off at 2 p.m. Friday, Dec. 21, at Albertsons Stadium and will be televised on ESPN.

The 2018 bowl will pit Mountain West and Mid-American Conference teams. It is the sixth straight appearance for the Mountain West, while the MAC receives a berth for the ninth time in 10 years.

Last season, Wyoming rolled to a 37-14 victory over Central Michigan in the nation's northernmost bowl. Cowboys quarterback Josh Allen was named the MVP after scoring a bowl-record 21 points in the first quarter and finishing with three touchdowns and 154 total yards. Allen ended up as a 2018 first-round NFL Draft pick, going No. 7 overall to the Buffalo Bills last week.
